A 74-year-old male was diagnosed with transverse colon carcinoma with idiopathic mesenteric phlebosclerosis (IMP). Extended right hemicolectomy with regional lymph node dissection was performed. It has been reported that IMP develops after taking Chinese herbs containing SANSIS for a long time. In this case, the patient had taken such an herb for more than 3 years. In Japan, total 6 cases have been reported on a tumor with IMP, including this case. Immunohistological examination showed that the IMP findings were particularly strong around the tumor. Thus, this case suggests that there is a link between the tumor and IMP.

Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of death worldwide. We have shown that pressure overload (PO)-induced inflammatory cell recruitment leads to heart failure in IL-10 knockout (KO) mice. However, it's unclear if PO-induced inflammatory cells also target the gut mucosa, causing gut dysbiosis and leakage.

Colonic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), excluding rectal NETs, are often described as relatively common and aggressive, with inferior median survival compared with other gastrointestinal (GI) primary sites. However, epidemiological databases may conflate well-differentiated NETs with poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinomas (NECs), leading to a lack of precise data on the prevalence, clinical behavior, and prognosis of well-differentiated colonic NETs. We analyzed a large institutional database to identify patients with well-differentiated NETs originating in the colon, excluding rectal NETs.

Background: Early anal canal cancer is frequently treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) to preserve anal function. However, if the lesion is in the anal canal, then significant difficulties such as bleeding and challenges associated with scope manipulation can arise.
Case Summary: A 70-year-old woman undergoing follow-up after transverse colon cancer surgery was diagnosed with anal canal cancer extending to the dentate line.

The Simulator of Human Intestinal Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME) has hindered widespread adoption due to its high cost. This study founded biomimetic multilink fermentation equipment (BMLFE), priced at half or even lower than SHIME. It was improved based on multilink fermentation equipment (MLFE) by modifying materials, peristaltic pumps, fermentation time, and dietary habits while calculating transfer time and volumes and conducted anaerobic fermentation for 15 days followed by monitoring changes in intestinal microbial composition and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs).
